Don't use any spray can, or solvent based paint. Do use a water based paint such as Latex, and then clear coat with a water based polyurethane, such as Caver Tripp Super Poly.

Check out SIG for "SIG Plastinamel." They used to sell it and according to SIG it was designed for painting directly onto bare molded foam wings, fuselages and parts. Dried to a high gloss and was fuel proof.
